  • Title: Determination of amino acid requirements by indicator amino acid oxidation: applications in health and disease.
    Author: Brunton JA, Ball RO, Pencharz PB.
    Journal: Curr Opin Clin Nutr Metab Care; 1998 Sep; 1(5):449-53. PubMed ID: 10565392.
    Abstract:
    Indispensable amino acid requirements for children, patients and pregnant women are largely unknown. We describe a new, non-invasive technique that can estimate requirements in vulnerable populations. Future applications will lead to optimal nutritional care for populations in which an appropriate balance of amino acids is essential for metabolic health and growth.
